Make taxes more progressive

Eliminate the inefficient & totalitarian personal income tax

Q: Do you support the permanent repeal of the federal estate tax?

A: Yes.

Q: Do you support making President Bush's tax cuts permanent?

A: No.

Q: Discuss your proposals for balancing the federal budget.

A: We must transition to
a pay-as-you-go system and not incur additional debt. We must eliminate the inefficient and totalitarian personal income tax. We must eliminate earmarks, pork-barrel spending and all other forms of political corruption.

Inheritance taxes discourage the American Dream

Why tax the dead? Because now they are in the worst possible position to defend themselves. The heirs of many deceased Americans find that the only solution to settling with the government is to liquidate their inheritance.

Obviously, this results in
the sale of homes and the loss of businesses. Is this the proper way for our government to support itself and to encourage the realization of the American Dream-to make your heirs have a better life, based on your homeownership and entrepreneurship?
